hi amit -

Hey Dave!

Great idea regarding the ordering of teams. That certainly evens things out a bit. (Though the company name was often one of the most fun parts of the pitch–maybe the teams could tell the moderator what their team was, but not everyone so that the surprise is saved for the presentation?)

Awesome that you’ll be doing it again at E-tech. Can’t wait to hear how it goes!

nice job Amit! looks like a great performance :)

one other tweak i think might improve the model — have the groups publicly announce their choice of words before they begin brainstorming, and let the group that announces *first* be able to pitch *last* (or perhaps let them choose their slot). and the group that chooses their words *last* has to pitch *first*. i think it will help for people to push each other to choose quickly, and thereby gain slight advantage to be able to pitch later.

anyway, seems like the general model works pretty well… i was asked to run another HalfBaked session at the O’Reilly E-tech conference, and we’ll keep sharing notes on how to make it better.

nice job on the video! great to have this recorded :)
